Maisel's & Friends India Ale Sgl

The multi generational master brewers at Bayreuth's Maisel's & Friends are turning traditional German brewing on its head with India Ale. Crafted as an interpretation of a classic English IPA but heavily supercharged with a modern American hop profile, this clever release bridges old-world structure with new world punch. It pours a beautifully clear, deep honey-amber gold with a dense, creamy white foam. On the nose, it hits you with an incredibly vibrant, complex payload of fresh pink grapefruit rind, bright citrus peel, and a distinct, wild pine needle freshness. The palate is wonderfully robust and medium bodied, layering intense, oily citrus hop flavors over a surprisingly rich, bready malt foundation. It moves smoothly toward a firm, satisfyingly dry bitterness that completely refreshes the palate. It is a masterfully balanced, highly sophisticated IPA built for long evening sessions.
